94 4runner Rear Coils Pro Comp

Hi, Im looking into getting new rear coil springs. I found some Pro Comp coils Part #57490 for 98$. They suposedly add 3.5 inch lift. I have a few questions.
Will i have to replace struts, or brakelines
Will these springs add payload
Will my truck be level. I have stock IFS

Does any one have pictures or expierence with these springs
Thanks

Procomp will sag after a while. Downey or old FJ80 coils will work better. If yu do any wheeling, you want to extend the brake line and get longer shocks.

measure twice...

hey watch out for the fj coils, I just got some I thought, i dont knowif they were the wrong year or what but they were way narrower than my stock ones and didnt fit... since I found this out after i replaced upper control arms, shocks added a panhard drop bracket.... ARHGHH anyway i am getting procomp ones cause right now I cant afford downeys. if you can get downy or OME. I am pretty sure you want rear fj80 from 93-97 but I may be wrong no the years, if you decide to go with the cruiser coils. good luck with it. dont forget the longer brake line,... make sure it has metric threads or you totally strip your hardlines...and remaking those sucks.....trust me....lol

- If they are 3.5" lift springs, then you'll be (obviously) sitting way ass high. Think about it. They'll lift the rear 3.5" higher than stock (not sagged) height.

- You don't have struts in the rear, maybe you're talking about shocks.
Yes, you'll need longer shocks.
- Will they add "payload" ? Dunno, what's the spring rate on them ? That's the only way to tell. Compare their spring rate with the spring rate of stock coils.

Im pretty sure you need to get new brackets for your panhard bar or else your axle will get moved a few inches over.
